If I know I have to memorize lines, I'm really gonna try to memorize lines. It's hard for me sometimes, because somebody wrote these words and you're trying really hard to get them the way they said it.

More quotes by Amy Sedaris

Sometimes, to keep things exciting, I decorate my house as if I owned a child. I'll toss a tiny pair of shoes in the hallway or lean small wooden crutches in what I refer to as 'the baby's room,' which is actually a tiny space where I make things. I continue to call it the baby's room because it confuses people and it's creepy.

I've never played anyone who didn't like themselves. I don't care if they're unattractive, but it's important that they think of themselves as attractive. And I guess that's part of their charm.

But I always like to play ugly people who think they're pretty.

I want witchcraft so bad that I can't stand it. I have wands in my apartment. And I use them sometimes. I walk into the kitchen with my wand, and I come out with something on a platter and I say, 'See, magic happens.' Works every time.

I listen. I like to give advice. Mostly, Ill just try to listen to my friends, and theyll say the same thing over and over again.

My kitchen's pink, like skin-tone pink, and I lowered my spice rack so it's eye level - it's true! - and my phone, so I can reach it when I fall, it's right there.

I wouldn't call myself a shut-in. I have the ability to leave my home I just choose not to. But because I'm such a homebody, it's important to be surrounded by things I love.

Image
Don't associate me with comedy. And please don't say actress. I would never call myself any of those things. I hate it when people call me that.

Image
As my guests leave even my most simple parties, I consistently hear the same thing: 'That was the best time I ever had,' and it's always me saying it. But I do know in my heart they all feel the same way, probably.

Image
I'm drawn to people who look different. I'm not exploiting. I'm not making fun of them. I'm drawn to them.

I swear I want to be a food model.

We're all used to seeing pretty people. I want to see real people.

I like dramas and stuff. That's what I watch, but it seems weird that I'd be in it.
Amy Sedaris
Image
I like it when people who aren't so attractive, or they have a whole lot of hurdles to get over, I like it when they dress up and they look presentable. That, to me, just touches me.

Sometimes it's just enough for me to have the idea. I don't need to see it through to the end. When it actually happens, I'm always disappointed because it's never like what I imagined in my head. When an idea becomes a reality, then it's a job. I'd rather just think about it.

Crafting is putting ideas into action and then holding them together with an inexpensive adhesive.

Don't leave a piece of jewelry at his house so you can go back and get it later he may be with his real girlfriend.

If I'm creating something for myself, then I want to have fun.

You know when you watch old movies, it's always the small parts you remember, the character actors who come in like a breath of fresh air.
